Pull objtool updates from Ingo Molar:
"Build footprint & performance improvements:
- Reduce memory usage with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y
In the worst case of an allyesconfig+CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y kernel,
DWARF creates almost 200 million relocations, ballooning objtool's
peak heap usage to 53GB. These patches reduce that to 25GB.
On a distro-type kernel with kernel IBT enabled, they reduce
objtool's peak heap usage from 4.2GB to 2.8GB.
These changes also improve the runtime significantly.
Debuggability improvements:
- Add the unwind_debug command-line option, for more extend unwinding
debugging output
- Limit unreachable warnings to once per function
- Add verbose option for disassembling affected functions
- Include backtrace in verbose mode
- Detect missing __noreturn annotations
- Ignore exc_double_fault() __noreturn warnings
- Remove superfluous global_noreturns entries
- Move noreturn function list to separate file
- Add __kunit_abort() to noreturns
Unwinder improvements:
- Allow stack operations in UNWIND_HINT_UNDEFINED regions
- drm/vmwgfx: Add unwind hints around RBP clobber
Cleanups:
- Move the x86 entry thunk restore code into thunk functions
- x86/unwind/orc: Use swap() instead of open coding it
- Remove unnecessary/unused variables
Fixes for modern stack canary handling"

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
- Introduce cmpxchg128() -- aka. the demise of cmpxchg_double()
The cmpxchg128() family of functions is basically & functionally the
same as cmpxchg_double(), but with a saner interface.
Instead of a 6-parameter horror that forced u128 - u64/u64-halves
layout details on the interface and exposed users to complexity,
fragility & bugs, use a natural 3-parameter interface with u128
types.
- Restructure the generated atomic headers, and add kerneldoc comments
for all of the generic atomic{,64,_long}_t operations.
The generated definitions are much cleaner now, and come with
documentation.
- Implement lock_set_cmp_fn() on lockdep, for defining an ordering when
taking multiple locks of the same type.
This gets rid of one use of lockdep_set_novalidate_class() in the
bcache code.
- Fix raw_cpu_generic_try_cmpxchg() bug due to an unintended variable
shadowing generating garbage code on Clang on certain ARM builds.

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Scheduler SMP load-balancer improvements:
- Avoid unnecessary migrations within SMT domains on hybrid systems.
Problem:
On hybrid CPU systems, (processors with a mixture of
higher-frequency SMT cores and lower-frequency non-SMT cores),
under the old code lower-priority CPUs pulled tasks from the
higher-priority cores if more than one SMT sibling was busy -
resulting in many unnecessary task migrations.
Solution:
The new code improves the load balancer to recognize SMT cores
with more than one busy sibling and allows lower-priority CPUs
to pull tasks, which avoids superfluous migrations and lets
lower-priority cores inspect all SMT siblings for the busiest
queue.
- Implement the 'runnable boosting' feature in the EAS balancer:
consider CPU contention in frequency, EAS max util & load-balance
busiest CPU selection.
This improves CPU utilization for certain workloads, while leaves
other key workloads unchanged.
Scheduler infrastructure improvements:
- Rewrite the scheduler topology setup code by consolidating it into
the build_sched_topology() helper function and building it
dynamically on the fly.
- Resolve the local_clock() vs. noinstr complications by rewriting
the code: provide separate sched_clock_noinstr() and
local_clock_noinstr() functions to be used in instrumentation code,
and make sure it is all instrumentation-safe.
Fixes:
- Fix a kthread_park() race with wait_woken()
- Fix misc wait_task_inactive() bugs unearthed by the -rt merge:
- Fix UP PREEMPT bug by unifying the SMP and UP implementations
- Fix task_struct::saved_state handling
- Fix various rq clock update bugs, unearthed by turning on the rq
clock debugging code.
- Fix the PSI WINDOW_MIN_US trigger limit, which was easy to trigger
by creating enough cgroups, by removing the warnign and restricting
window size triggers to PSI file write-permission or
CAP_SYS_RESOURCE.
- Propagate SMT flags in the topology when removing degenerate domain
- Fix grub_reclaim() calculation bug in the deadline scheduler code
- Avoid resetting the min update period when it is unnecessary, in
psi_trigger_destroy().
- Don't balance a task to its current running CPU in load_balance(),
which was possible on certain NUMA topologies with overlapping
groups.
- Fix the sched-debug printing of rq->nr_uninterruptible

- Address various -Wmissing-prototype warnings, as a preparation to
(maybe) enable this warning in the future.

Pull x86 core updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A set of fixes for kexec(), reboot and shutdown issues:
- Ensure that the WBINVD in stop_this_cpu() has been completed before
the control CPU proceedes.
stop_this_cpu() is used for kexec(), reboot and shutdown to park
the APs in a HLT loop.
The control CPU sends an IPI to the APs and waits for their CPU
online bits to be cleared. Once they all are marked "offline" it
proceeds.
But stop_this_cpu() clears the CPU online bit before issuing
WBINVD, which means there is no guarantee that the AP has reached
the HLT loop.
This was reported to cause intermittent reboot/shutdown failures
due to some dubious interaction with the firmware.
This is not only a problem of WBINVD. The code to actually "stop"
the CPU which runs between clearing the online bit and reaching the
HLT loop can cause large enough delays on its own (think
virtualization). That's especially dangerous for kexec() as kexec()
expects that all APs are in a safe state and not executing code
while the boot CPU jumps to the new kernel. There are more issues
vs kexec() which are addressed separately.
Cure this by implementing an explicit synchronization point right
before the AP reaches HLT. This guarantees that the AP has
completed the full stop proceedure.
- Fix the condition for WBINVD in stop_this_cpu().
The WBINVD in stop_this_cpu() is required for ensuring that when
switching to or from memory encryption no dirty data is left in the
cache lines which might cause a write back in the wrong more later.
This checks CPUID directly because the feature bit might have been
cleared due to a command line option.
But that CPUID check accesses leaf 0x8000001f::EAX unconditionally.
Intel CPUs return the content of the highest supported leaf when a
non-existing leaf is read, while AMD CPUs return all zeros for
unsupported leafs.
So the result of the test on Intel CPUs is lottery and on AMD its
just correct by chance.
While harmless it's incorrect and causes the conditional wbinvd()
to be issued where not required, which caused the above issue to be
unearthed.
- Make kexec() robust against AP code execution
Ashok observed triple faults when doing kexec() on a system which
had been booted with "nosmt".
It turned out that the SMT siblings which had been brought up
partially are parked in mwait_play_dead() to enable power savings.
mwait_play_dead() is monitoring the thread flags of the AP's idle
task, which has been chosen as it's unlikely to be written to.
But kexec() can overwrite the previous kernel text and data
including page tables etc. When it overwrites the cache lines
monitored by an AP that AP resumes execution after the MWAIT on
eventually overwritten text, stack and page tables, which obviously
might end up in a triple fault easily.
Make this more robust in several steps:
1) Use an explicit per CPU cache line for monitoring.
2) Write a command to these cache lines to kick APs out of MWAIT
before proceeding with kexec(), shutdown or reboot.
The APs confirm the wakeup by writing status back and then
enter a HLT loop.
3) If the system uses INIT/INIT/STARTUP for AP bringup, park the
APs in INIT state.
HLT is not a guarantee that an AP won't wake up and resume
execution. HLT is woken up by NMI and SMI. SMI puts the CPU
back into HLT (+/- firmware bugs), but NMI is delivered to the
CPU which executes the NMI handler. Same issue as the MWAIT
scenario described above.
Sending an INIT/INIT sequence to the APs puts them into wait
for STARTUP state, which is safe against NMI.
There is still an issue remaining which can't be fixed: #MCE
If the AP sits in HLT and receives a broadcast #MCE it will try to
handle it with the obvious consequences.
INIT/INIT clears CR4.MCE in the AP which will cause a broadcast
#MCE to shut down the machine.
So there is a choice between fire (HLT) and frying pan (INIT).
Frying pan has been chosen as it's at least preventing the NMI
issue.
On systems which are not using INIT/INIT/STARTUP there is not much
which can be done right now, but at least the obvious and easy to
trigger MWAIT issue has been addressed"

Pull SMP updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A large update for SMP management:
- Parallel CPU bringup
The reason why people are interested in parallel bringup is to
shorten the (kexec) reboot time of cloud servers to reduce the
downtime of the VM tenants.
The current fully serialized bringup does the following per AP:
1) Prepare callbacks (allocate, intialize, create threads)
2) Kick the AP alive (e.g. INIT/SIPI on x86)
3) Wait for the AP to report alive state
4) Let the AP continue through the atomic bringup
5) Let the AP run the threaded bringup to full online state
There are two significant delays:
#3 The time for an AP to report alive state in start_secondary()
on x86 has been measured in the range between 350us and 3.5ms
depending on vendor and CPU type, BIOS microcode size etc.
#4 The atomic bringup does the microcode update. This has been
measured to take up to ~8ms on the primary threads depending
on the microcode patch size to apply.
On a two socket SKL server with 56 cores (112 threads) the boot CPU
spends on current mainline about 800ms busy waiting for the APs to
come up and apply microcode. That's more than 80% of the actual
onlining procedure.
This can be reduced significantly by splitting the bringup
mechanism into two parts:
1) Run the prepare callbacks and kick the AP alive for each AP
which needs to be brought up.
The APs wake up, do their firmware initialization and run the
low level kernel startup code including microcode loading in
parallel up to the first synchronization point. (#1 and #2
above)
2) Run the rest of the bringup code strictly serialized per CPU
(#3 - #5 above) as it's done today.
Parallelizing that stage of the CPU bringup might be possible
in theory, but it's questionable whether required surgery
would be justified for a pretty small gain.
If the system is large enough the first AP is already waiting at
the first synchronization point when the boot CPU finished the
wake-up of the last AP. That reduces the AP bringup time on that
SKL from ~800ms to ~80ms, i.e. by a factor ~10x.
The actual gain varies wildly depending on the system, CPU,
microcode patch size and other factors. There are some
opportunities to reduce the overhead further, but that needs some
deep surgery in the x86 CPU bringup code.
For now this is only enabled on x86, but the core functionality
obviously works for all SMP capable architectures.
- Enhancements for SMP function call tracing so it is possible to
locate the scheduling and the actual execution points. That allows
to measure IPI delivery time precisely"

"Initialize FPU late.
Right now FPU is initialized very early during boot. There is no real
requirement to do so. The only requirement is to have it done before
alternatives are patched.
That's done in check_bugs() which does way more than what the function
name suggests.
So first rename check_bugs() to arch_cpu_finalize_init() which makes
it clear what this is about.
Move the invocation of arch_cpu_finalize_init() earlier in
start_kernel() as it has to be done before fork_init() which needs to
know the FPU register buffer size.
With those prerequisites the FPU initialization can be moved into
arch_cpu_finalize_init(), which removes it from the early and fragile

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"Miscellaneous features, cleanups, and fixes for vfs and individual fs
Features:
- Use mode 0600 for file created by cachefilesd so it can be run by
unprivileged users. This aligns them with directories which are
already created with mode 0700 by cachefilesd
- Reorder a few members in struct file to prevent some false sharing
scenarios
- Indicate that an eventfd is used a semaphore in the eventfd's
fdinfo procfs file
- Add a missing uapi header for eventfd exposing relevant uapi
defines
- Let the VFS protect transitions of a superblock from read-only to
read-write in addition to the protection it already provides for
transitions from read-write to read-only. Protecting read-only to
read-write transitions allows filesystems such as ext4 to perform
internal writes, keeping writers away until the transition is
completed
Cleanups:
- Arnd removed the architecture specific arch_report_meminfo()
prototypes and added a generic one into procfs.h. Note, we got a
report about a warning in amdpgpu codepaths that suggested this was
bisectable to this change but we concluded it was a false positive
- Remove unused parameters from split_fs_names()
- Rename put_and_unmap_page() to unmap_and_put_page() to let the name
reflect the order of the cleanup operation that has to unmap before
the actual put
- Unexport buffer_check_dirty_writeback() as it is not used outside
of block device aops
- Stop allocating aio rings from highmem
- Protecting read-{only,write} transitions in the VFS used open-coded
barriers in various places. Replace them with proper little helpers
and document both the helpers and all barrier interactions involved
when transitioning between read-{only,write} states
- Use flexible array members in old readdir codepaths
Fixes:
- Use the correct type __poll_t for epoll and eventfd
- Replace all deprecated strlcpy() invocations, whose return value
isn't checked with an equivalent strscpy() call
- Fix some kernel-doc warnings in fs/open.c
- Reduce the stack usage in jffs2's xattr codepaths finally getting
rid of this: fs/jffs2/xattr.c:887:1: error: the frame size of 1088
bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]
royally annoying compilation warning
- Use __FMODE_NONOTIFY instead of FMODE_NONOTIFY where an int and not
fmode_t is required to avoid fmode_t to integer degradation
warnings
- Create coredumps with O_WRONLY instead of O_RDWR. There's a long
explanation in that commit how O_RDWR is actually a bug which we
found out with the help of Linus and git archeology
- Fix "no previous prototype" warnings in the pipe codepaths
- Add overflow calculations for remap_verify_area() as a signed
addition overflow could be triggered in xfstests
- Fix a null pointer dereference in sysv
- Use an unsigned variable for length calculations in jfs avoiding
compilation warnings with gcc 13
- Fix a dangling pipe pointer in the watch queue codepath
- The legacy mount option parser provided as a fallback by the VFS
for filesystems not yet converted to the new mount api did prefix
the generated mount option string with a leading ',' causing issues
for some filesystems

Parking CPUs in a HLT loop is not completely safe vs. kexec() as HLT can
resume execution due to NMI, SMI and MCE, which has the same issue as the
MWAIT loop.
Kicking the secondary CPUs into INIT makes this safe against NMI and SMI.
A broadcast MCE will take the machine down, but a broadcast MCE which makes
HLT resume and execute overwritten text, pagetables or data will end up in
a disaster too.
So chose the lesser of two evils and kick the secondary CPUs into INIT
unless the system has installed special wakeup mechanisms which are not
using INIT.

TLDR: It's a mess.
When kexec() is executed on a system with offline CPUs, which are parked in
mwait_play_dead() it can end up in a triple fault during the bootup of the
kexec kernel or cause hard to diagnose data corruption.
The reason is that kexec() eventually overwrites the previous kernel's text,
page tables, data and stack. If it writes to the cache line which is
monitored by a previously offlined CPU, MWAIT resumes execution and ends
up executing the wrong text, dereferencing overwritten page tables or
corrupting the kexec kernels data.
Cure this by bringing the offlined CPUs out of MWAIT into HLT.
Write to the monitored cache line of each offline CPU, which makes MWAIT
resume execution. The written control word tells the offlined CPUs to issue
HLT, which does not have the MWAIT problem.
That does not help, if a stray NMI, MCE or SMI hits the offlined CPUs as
those make it come out of HLT.
A follow up change will put them into INIT, which protects at least against
NMI and SMI.

Tony reported intermittent lockups on poweroff. His analysis identified the
wbinvd() in stop_this_cpu() as the culprit. This was added to ensure that
on SME enabled machines a kexec() does not leave any stale data in the
caches when switching from encrypted to non-encrypted mode or vice versa.
That wbinvd() is conditional on the SME feature bit which is read directly
from CPUID. But that readout does not check whether the CPUID leaf is
available or not. If it's not available the CPU will return the value of
the highest supported leaf instead. Depending on the content the "SME" bit
might be set or not.
That's incorrect but harmless. Making the CPUID readout conditional makes
the observed hangs go away, but it does not fix the underlying problem:
CPU0 CPU1
stop_other_cpus()
send_IPIs(REBOOT); stop_this_cpu()
while (num_online_cpus() > 1); set_online(false);
proceed... -> hang
wbinvd()
WBINVD is an expensive operation and if multiple CPUs issue it at the same
time the resulting delays are even larger.
But CPU0 already observed num_online_cpus() going down to 1 and proceeds
which causes the system to hang.
This issue exists independent of WBINVD, but the delays caused by WBINVD
make it more prominent.
Make this more robust by adding a cpumask which is initialized to the
online CPU mask before sending the IPIs and CPUs clear their bit in
stop_this_cpu() after the WBINVD completed. Check for that cpumask to
become empty in stop_other_cpus() instead of watching num_online_cpus().
The cpumask cannot plug all holes either, but it's better than a raw
counter and allows to restrict the NMI fallback IPI to be sent only the
CPUs which have not reported within the timeout window.

Moving mem_encrypt_init() broke the AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT=n because the
declaration of that function was under #ifdef CONFIG_AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT and
the obvious placement for the inline stub was the #else path.
This is a leftover of commit 20f07a044a76 ("x86/sev: Move common memory
encryption code to mem_encrypt.c") which made mem_encrypt_init() depend on
X86_MEM_ENCRYPT without moving the prototype. That did not fail back then
because there was no stub inline as the core init code had a weak function.
Move both the declaration and the stub out of the CONFIG_AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT

Commits ffb1b4a41016 ("x86/unwind/orc: Add 'signal' field to ORC
metadata") and fb799447ae29 ("x86,objtool: Split UNWIND_HINT_EMPTY in
two") changed the ORC format. Although ORC is internal to the kernel,
it's the only way for external tools to get reliable kernel stack traces
on x86-64. In particular, the drgn debugger [1] uses ORC for stack
unwinding, and these format changes broke it [2]. As the drgn
maintainer, I don't care how often or how much the kernel changes the
ORC format as long as I have a way to detect the change.
It suffices to store a version identifier in the vmlinux and kernel
module ELF files (to use when parsing ORC sections from ELF), and in
kernel memory (to use when parsing ORC from a core dump+symbol table).
Rather than hard-coding a version number that needs to be manually
bumped, Peterz suggested hashing the definitions from orc_types.h. If
there is a format change that isn't caught by this, the hashing script
can be updated.
This patch adds an .orc_header allocated ELF section containing the
20-byte hash to vmlinux and kernel modules, along with the corresponding
__start_orc_header and __stop_orc_header symbols in vmlinux.

VMware high-bandwidth hypercalls take the RBP register as input. This
breaks basic frame pointer convention, as RBP should never be clobbered.
So frame pointer unwinding is broken for the instructions surrounding
the hypercalls. Fortunately this doesn't break live patching with
CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER, as it only unwinds from blocking tasks, and stack
traces from preempted tasks are already marked unreliable anyway.
However, for live patching with ORC, this could actually be a
theoretical problem if vmw_port_hb_{in,out}() were still compiled with a
frame pointer due to having an aligned stack. In practice that hasn't
seemed to be an issue since the objtool warnings have only been seen
with CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER.
Add unwind hint annotations to tell the ORC unwinder to mark stack
traces as unreliable.
Fixes the following warnings:
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: vmw_port_hb_in+0x1df: return with modified stack frame
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: vmw_port_hb_out+0x1dd: return with modified stack frame

Add SNP-specific hooks to the unaccepted memory support in the boot
path (__accept_memory()) and the core kernel (accept_memory()) in order
to support booting SNP guests when unaccepted memory is present. Without
this support, SNP guests will fail to boot and/or panic() when unaccepted
memory is present in the EFI memory map.
The process of accepting memory under SNP involves invoking the hypervisor
to perform a page state change for the page to private memory and then
issuing a PVALIDATE instruction to accept the page.
Since the boot path and the core kernel paths perform similar operations,
move the pvalidate_pages() and vmgexit_psc() functions into sev-shared.c
to avoid code duplication.
Create the new header file arch/x86/boot/compressed/sev.h because adding
the function declaration to any of the existing SEV related header files
pulls in too many other header files, causing the build to fail.

In advance of providing support for unaccepted memory, request 2M Page
State Change (PSC) requests when the address range allows for it. By using
a 2M page size, more PSC operations can be handled in a single request to
the hypervisor. The hypervisor will determine if it can accommodate the
larger request by checking the mapping in the nested page table. If mapped
as a large page, then the 2M page request can be performed, otherwise the
2M page request will be broken down into 512 4K page requests. This is
still more efficient than having the guest perform multiple PSC requests
in order to process the 512 4K pages.
In conjunction with the 2M PSC requests, attempt to perform the associated
PVALIDATE instruction of the page using the 2M page size. If PVALIDATE
fails with a size mismatch, then fallback to validating 512 4K pages. To
do this, page validation is modified to work with the PSC structure and
not just a virtual address range.

In advance of providing support for unaccepted memory, switch from using
kmalloc() for allocating the Page State Change (PSC) structure to using a
local variable that lives on the stack. This is needed to avoid a possible
recursive call into set_pages_state() if the kmalloc() call requires
(more) memory to be accepted, which would result in a hang.
The current size of the PSC struct is 2,032 bytes. To make the struct more
stack friendly, reduce the number of PSC entries from 253 down to 64,
resulting in a size of 520 bytes. This is a nice compromise on struct size
and total PSC requests while still allowing parallel PSC operations across
vCPUs.
If the reduction in PSC entries results in any kind of performance issue
(that is not seen at the moment), use of a larger static PSC struct, with
fallback to the smaller stack version, can be investigated.
For more background info on this decision, see the subthread in the Link:

UEFI Specification version 2.9 introduces the concept of memory
acceptance: Some Virtual Machine platforms, such as Intel TDX or AMD
SEV-SNP, requiring memory to be accepted before it can be used by the
guest. Accepting happens via a protocol specific for the Virtual
Machine platform.
Accepting memory is costly and it makes VMM allocate memory for the
accepted guest physical address range. It's better to postpone memory
acceptance until memory is needed. It lowers boot time and reduces
memory overhead.
The kernel needs to know what memory has been accepted. Firmware
communicates this information via memory map: a new memory type --
EFI_UNACCEPTED_MEMORY -- indicates such memory.
Range-based tracking works fine for firmware, but it gets bulky for
the kernel: e820 (or whatever the arch uses) has to be modified on every
page acceptance. It leads to table fragmentation and there's a limited
number of entries in the e820 table.
Another option is to mark such memory as usable in e820 and track if the
range has been accepted in a bitmap. One bit in the bitmap represents a
naturally aligned power-2-sized region of address space -- unit.
For x86, unit size is 2MiB: 4k of the bitmap is enough to track 64GiB or
physical address space.
In the worst-case scenario -- a huge hole in the middle of the
address space -- It needs 256MiB to handle 4PiB of the address
space.
Any unaccepted memory that is not aligned to unit_size gets accepted
upfront.
The bitmap is allocated and constructed in the EFI stub and passed down
to the kernel via EFI configuration table. allocate_e820() allocates the
bitmap if unaccepted memory is present, according to the size of
unaccepted region.

With the intent to provide local_clock_noinstr(), a variant of
local_clock() that's safe to be called from noinstr code (with the
assumption that any such code will already be non-preemptible),
prepare for things by making the Hyper-V TSC and MSR sched_clock
implementations noinstr.

U64_MAX
Currently hv_read_tsc_page_tsc() (ab)uses the (valid) time value of
U64_MAX as an error return. This breaks the clean wrap-around of the
clock.
Modify the function signature to return a boolean state and provide
another u64 pointer to store the actual time on success. This obviates
the need to steal one time value and restores the full counter width.

Because of how the virtual clocks use U64_MAX as an exception value
instead of a valid time, the clocks can no longer be assumed to wrap
cleanly. This is then compounded by arch_vdso_cycles_ok() rejecting
everything with the MSB/Sign-bit set.
Therefore, the effective mask becomes S64_MAX, and the comment with
vdso_calc_delta() that states the mask is U64_MAX and isn't optimized
out is just plain silly.
Now, the code has a negative filter -- to deal with TSC wobbles:
if (cycles > last)
which is just plain wrong, because it should've been written as:
if ((s64)(cycles - last) > 0)
to take wrapping into account, but per all the above, we don't
actually wrap on u64 anymore.

Currently several architectures have kerneldoc comments for
arch_atomic_*(), which is unhelpful as these live in a shared namespace
where they clash, and the arch_atomic_*() ops are now an implementation
detail of the raw_atomic_*() ops, which no-one should use those
directly.
Delete the kerneldoc comments for arch_atomic_*(), along with
pseudo-kerneldoc comments which are in the correct style but are missing
the leading '/**' necessary to be true kerneldoc comments.
There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

Some atomics can be implemented in several different ways, e.g.
FULL/ACQUIRE/RELEASE ordered atomics can be implemented in terms of
RELAXED atomics, and ACQUIRE/RELEASE/RELAXED can be implemented in terms
of FULL ordered atomics. Other atomics are optional, and don't exist in
some configurations (e.g. not all architectures implement the 128-bit
cmpxchg ops).
Subsequent patches will require that architectures define a preprocessor
symbol for any atomic (or ordering variant) which is optional. This will
make the fallback ifdeffery more robust, and simplify future changes.
Add the required definitions to arch/x86.

When switching from kthreads to vhost_tasks two bugs were added:
1. The vhost worker tasks's now show up as processes so scripts doing
ps or ps a would not incorrectly detect the vhost task as another
process. 2. kthreads disabled freeze by setting PF_NOFREEZE, but
vhost tasks's didn't disable or add support for them.
To fix both bugs, this switches the vhost task to be thread in the
process that does the VHOST_SET_OWNER ioctl, and has vhost_worker call
get_signal to support SIGKILL/SIGSTOP and freeze signals. Note that
SIGKILL/STOP support is required because CLONE_THREAD requires
CLONE_SIGHAND which requires those 2 signals to be supported.
This is a modified version of the patch written by Mike Christie
<michael.christie@oracle.com> which was a modified version of patch
originally written by Linus.
Much of what depended upon PF_IO_WORKER now depends on PF_USER_WORKER.
Including ignoring signals, setting up the register state, and having
get_signal return instead of calling do_group_exit.
Tidied up the vhost_task abstraction so that the definition of
vhost_task only needs to be visible inside of vhost_task.c. Making
it easier to review the code and tell what needs to be done where.
As part of this the main loop has been moved from vhost_worker into
vhost_task_fn. vhost_worker now returns true if work was done.
The main loop has been updated to call get_signal which handles
SIGSTOP, freezing, and collects the message that tells the thread to
exit as part of process exit. This collection clears
__fatal_signal_pending. This collection is not guaranteed to
clear signal_pending() so clear that explicitly so the schedule()
sleeps.
For now the vhost thread continues to exist and run work until the
last file descriptor is closed and the release function is called as
part of freeing struct file. To avoid hangs in the coredump
rendezvous and when killing threads in a multi-threaded exec. The
coredump code and de_thread have been modified to ignore vhost threads.
Remvoing the special case for exec appears to require teaching
vhost_dev_flush how to directly complete transactions in case
the vhost thread is no longer running.
Removing the special case for coredump rendezvous requires either the
above fix needed for exec or moving the coredump rendezvous into
get_signal.

mtrr_type_lookup() should always return a valid memory type. In case
there is no information available, it should return the default UC.
This will remove the last case where mtrr_type_lookup() can return
MTRR_TYPE_INVALID, so adjust the comment in include/uapi/asm/mtrr.h.
Note that removing the MTRR_TYPE_INVALID #define from that header
could break user code, so it has to stay.
At the same time the mtrr_type_lookup() stub for the !CONFIG_MTRR
case should set uniform to 1, as if the memory range would be
covered by no MTRR at all.

When running virtualized, MTRR access can be reduced (e.g. in Xen PV
guests or when running as a SEV-SNP guest under Hyper-V). Typically, the
hypervisor will not advertize the MTRR feature in CPUID data, resulting
in no MTRR memory type information being available for the kernel.
This has turned out to result in problems (Link tags below):
- Hyper-V SEV-SNP guests using uncached mappings where they shouldn't
- Xen PV dom0 mapping memory as WB which should be UC- instead
Solve those problems by allowing an MTRR static state override,
overwriting the empty state used today. In case such a state has been
set, don't call get_mtrr_state() in mtrr_bp_init().
The set state will only be used by mtrr_type_lookup(), as in all other
cases mtrr_enabled() is being checked, which will return false. Accept
the overwrite call only for selected cases when running as a guest.
Disable X86_FEATURE_MTRR in order to avoid any MTRR modifications by
just refusing them.
